GOOMBOORIAN

OKAY, SO THE TIDE WAS SLIGHTLY OUT!

FRIDAY 21.07.2017: Bought our prawns from the co-op, fresh bread from the bakers, bottle of bubbly and headed for Tin Can Bay (population 1,994). Tin Can Bay later became, and still remains, an important fishing port, with a focus on prawns as well as recreational fishing. An important tourist feature is the regular arrival of wild Australian humpback dolphins which usually appear early mornings next to the Norman Point boat ramp. Having experienced the dolphin feeding at Monkey Mia we opted out of this one.

Finished lunch and had a look round the beautiful village that is Tin Can Bay. We were headed back to Ross Creek Store and on the way passed a sign "Country Market at Goomboorian Hall 8.00 - 12.00 Saturday." Sounds like a plan so we thought we would track down the hall. Found it and noticed people were setting up for the morning. Carole ventured in and determined that yes we could set up our stall in the morning and that we would be able to stay behind the hall for the evening - double bonus.
